In this special visit to the legendary Osmothèque in Versailles, France, I sit down with perfumer and Osmothèque President Thomas Fontaine to explore one of the world's most important perfume archives. We discuss how lost fragrances are preserved, how ancient perfumes are reconstructed from historical recipes, and why the Osmothèque has become the guardian of perfume history. Along the way, we smell original and recreated versions of iconic fragrances including Fougère Royale, Jicky, Joy, Vent Vert, Tabac Blond, Eau de Lubin, and more. If you've ever wondered what perfume smelled like 100, 200, or even 2,000 years ago, this is a fascinating look inside a place unlike any other in the fragrance world. The Osmothèque will also be making its first-ever fragrance show appearance in the United States at ScentFest SF, where attendees will have the opportunity to experience historic perfumes firsthand.
